When completing the thesis, it is necessary to be guided by special requirements and recommendations. Each university establishes them independently, based on generally recognized state standards. What are the requirements for the design of the thesis, we will describe in this article.
General design
- When filling out the title page, it is necessary to indicate the name of the educational institution (in full), faculty, name of work, full name of the student and teacher-consultant.
- Requirements for the design of the thesis. Standards for the design of the fields: the right - 10 mm., The top, as well as the bottom - 20 mm., And the left - 30 mm. (Please note that these figures can be changed at the initiative of the university, however, the new values should not be less than the indicated numbers).
- The thesis is written on white paper in A4 format.
- Requirements for the design of the thesis (GOST) do not contain indications regarding the type of font. However, Times New Roman is always used. Size - 14 (it can also be 12, but not less), color - black.
- The spacing used between the lines is one and a half.
- Pagination should be done at the bottom of the sheet in the middle. Punctuation marks are not used when setting numbers, as well as when writing headings.
Requirements for the design of the thesis. Content, design of additional elements
On this sheet it is necessary to write the names of all the parts of which the work consists, including subsections and paragraphs. Appendices, a list of used literature and other sources are also indicated in the content. Opposite each title you need to put down the page numbers that are the initial ones. The word "Content" is written in the center in capital letters. All drawings included in the thesis must be signed. For example, "Figure 8: Microchip." The signature should be located under the object itself, in the center. A link to the picture must be present in the text of the thesis. The tables contained in the text are signed at the top, on the left side. They are located strictly after the link to them (either on the page in which there is a mention of it, or on the next one). As a name you need to use
the word "Table", its number and name (according to GOST, the name can not be written, however, educational institutions of higher and secondary vocational education indicate it in their requirements). If there is a need to transfer the object to another sheet, then you must definitely indicate on the new one that this is a continuation.
Requirements for the design of the thesis: notes, applications, sources
If necessary, clarify the information using notes. They are in the text either immediately after the main information, or at the bottom of the page in the form of a footnote. They have the following form: "Note: (text)". If there are several, then you should arrange them in a list, numbered in Arabic numerals. Applications are located at the very end of the thesis in the order in which they are mentioned in the text. All figures and tables located in them have a name, for example, "Figure A8". Standards for the design of the thesis also contain information on how to draw up sources of literature. Example: "Ivantsov, P.T. Money Operations / P.T. Ivantsov. - M.: Sun 2014. - 521 p."
